89 Courtenay Cres, Long Beach NSW 2536

Large footprint on modest block | solar panels already installed | 3-car garaging rare for area | bushfire overlay requires due diligence The property’s competitive edge is its unusually large 298 m² building size on a 658 m² block, which is rare for Long Beach and gives a buyer immediate space advantage over most nearby houses. The three-car garage and solar panels add practical utility that reduces ongoing costs and appeals strongly to families or those seeking a long-term owner-occupied hold. The absence of flood or heritage overlays simplifies due diligence, while the reliable NBN and 5G coverage support modern living needs. This house is best suited to a buyer prioritising internal space and garage capacity over a large yard. The bushfire overlay is the primary risk, as it may raise insurance premiums and impose BAL-related building constraints if renovations are planned. The asking price sits above the estimated value range and the last 2022 sale, so a buyer should verify comparable sales to avoid overpaying. The rental yield is modest, meaning this is not a strong cash-flow investment but a solid choice for someone who will occupy or hold for capital growth. Approach as a home to live in and improve over time, not flip quickly.
